FAMILY EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS DURING COVID-19

Everyone over the age of 18 should have the following three documents in place:

Health Care Power of Attorney – Identifies who can make health care decisions for you in the event you are too sick to make your own health care decisions, conveys your wishes regarding end-of-life care, and specifies any restrictions you may have regarding your health care.

HIPAA Authorization – Authorizes medical providers to share your medical information with the individuals you name in the document.

Financial Power of Attorney – Authorizes someone else to take care of your financial affairs on your behalf if it becomes necessary.

Additionally, anyone who is the parent of a child under the age of 18 should have a Short-Term Guardianship form in place. This document allows parents to name a guardian who can temporarily take care of minor children in case both parents are sick or quarantined. It is even more important for single parents.
